Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 432960.

Road is flooding with considerable water again after rainfall. Drivers need to drive towards oncoming vehicles to avoid when driving out of Caddington towards the A5. This had been resolved but has now returned. Should the recent water have frozen, the road would have been impassable.
